It's not like people disrespect Bisping for no reason. He's had a fine career with with some nice wins and an impressive record. The reality is that he's never beaten the elite yet he continues scream to the world that he's a legitimate contender and that he's defeated a who's who.

This leads to the world responding to the unfounded claims. If he were humble he'd almost certainly be held in higher regard, instead he gets defensive and the conversation deteriorates from there. I do believe he's a supremely confident man, you need to be, but the glaring deficiency in his argument and self promotion is facts...there just simply aren't any facts to substantiate his claim. Quite the contrary actually.

Also landing illegal blows that eventually end the fight, and then acting like he is a badass doesn't help very much. Add in a little spitting on cornermen if he's feeling frisky.

Let me say it for you again... FLUKE.... That is my opinion until I see them both fight seriously. I have nothing personal against Weidman but I feel the same way about that fight that I felt about RJJ getting knocked out by Tarver.

It's an opinion you don't have to like or even respect for that matter.

opinions are neither right or wrong just opinions. I feel most of Silvas wins were FLUKE.

Weidman studied his opponent and unlike forrest and bonnar, he can move forward while throwing leather. the gif of bonnar throwing that side kick is telegraphed and that's all he threw. same as forrest...throwing punches standing in the same spot not moving forward. Weidman pressed forward aggressive enough and with the ability to not eat heavy shots. Silva attempted the dance...and looked like a foolish doing it. weidmanhe said it himself. he took shots and moved forward showing silva...im coming to get you and he did! He will prove it again in the rematch. this time subbing silva! Im calling a Weidman FLUKE submission. i'll say guillotine.

I guess it's a good thing for Anderson that Weidman isn't a bitch about rematches.

The whole "fluke" conspiracy theory nonsense has been great comedy. Nothing but the blindest fanboy could actually somehow turn Anderson himself saying--repeatedly--that he took the fight seriously and lost anyway and somehow STILL find a way to pretend that Anderson wasn't "serious" or "focused."

Again, whatever makes their tears less salty, I guess.

All manner of men came to work for the News: everything from wild young Turks who wanted to rip the world in half and start all over again -- to tired, beer-bellied old hacks who wanted nothing more than to live out their days in peace before a bunch of lunatics ripped the world in half.

Do you gamble by chance?

By the way this is more of a question for anyone to answer. Are there any non-fanboys here on the forum? Those who also believe they are capable of walking on water are also free to answer.
